The K2 (AMBW) (UPDATING)

The Facade

What she is wearing during the interview

"Well since we are on the topic of you being a supportive wife, some people say that you're husband's success is greatly benefited by his in-laws." The talk show host said to Madam Choi.

"His in-laws?" Madam Choi looked around the room before answering. "Well, does he have any more in-laws other than my parents?" She said trying to crack a joke.

"You are very funny." The reporter did a dry laugh. "But still, you're the eldest daughter of the owner of the JB Group. And the JB Group is indeed the most powerful conglomerate in Korea."

Madam Choi's smile faded. She looked at the reporter with serious eyes. She made sure that the reporter wasn't supposed to ask about her position at the JB Group.

Putting on a fake smile she said to the audience "To tell you the truth, I feel sorry for my husband.... for having met a woman like me."

"If he had met someone else .... he would've been accepted warmly." Ending her statement with fake sorrow in her eyes.

"Oh, it seems there were difficulties in the past?"

Madam Choi nodded her head looking down at the floor "My late father..." She looked at the TV host "Didn't want a son in politics."

"Then, is that the reason why Chairman Choi cut off ties with you... was because of your husband?"

'That bitch' Madam Choi thought. This was supposed to be asking about her home life. She only did this interview so she could look better than the other First Ladies.

The interviewer looked down at her script and with fake sincerity she said. "I'm sorry, it seems like I touched on a sensitive topic"

Madam Choi fake sniffled and wiped a tear away "No, it's ok". Taking a breath before her next statement "Both men and women ... need to be loyal to the one they love? Right?"

She looked at the young woman interviewing her. "You loved your husband quite a lot, didn't you? You even gave up your right as an heir to the company for him."

The TV show host was pressing Madam Choi for answers. She knew that there was more to the story than Madam Choi presented to the public.

"Yes. And I still respect my husband." Madam Choi looked into the camera. It was like she was staring directly into your eyes. All the women in the audience thought Madam Choi was such a respectable woman. And believed that she was a woman that all ladies should be inspired to be.

Reporters and media were outside the JSS building that had just been raided. The ambulance was carrying the old woman out on a stretcher.

"What does the building look like now?"

"Do you know who did it?"

"Is the patient alive?"

Jeha was sitting in his truck watching this all go down . He felt an overwhelming amount of guilt. It was like no matter how he tried people always got hurt because of him. Wallowing in his sorrows he drove off.

Inside the building, Chief Joo was inspecting the desk that Jeha fell onto. He picked up the screwdriver "He works at an ads company?" He said asking his agents.

"Yes sir."

The head of security looked at the broken glass. "And yet he broke through that thick glass?" He was too suspicious of him. That man had some training.

Back with Madam Choi, and this uncomfortable interview was still taking place.
